About This Access Site
Put In - Mt. Tremper-Phoenicia Rd is a whitewater access point located on Esopus Creek in the Town of Shandaken, Ulster County, New York. This put-in serves as an entry point for paddlers looking to run sections of Esopus Creek, a popular whitewater destination in the Catskill Mountains. The site provides access to creek paddling in the mid-Hudson Valley region.
Esopus Creek offers varying water conditions depending on seasonal flow and dam releases from upstream reservoirs. Paddlers should be aware that water levels and current strength can change significantly, particularly during spring runoff and after heavy rainfall. The creek can accommodate kayakers and canoeists with appropriate skill levels, though conditions should be verified before launching. This area is part of the broader Esopus Creek paddling network that extends through scenic mountain terrain.
